The award-winning Zephyr Ensemble of London was formed ten years ago and has vast experience in providing music for weddings, corporate functions and other events. The Ensemble works as either a wind quintet or trio and recent venues the Ensemble has played at include Kensington Palace, the Royal Courts of Justice and the House of Lords. Companies the Ensemble has worked for include BMW, Jaguar and Centrica. Highlights of the Zephyr Ensemble’s experience include playing to HM the Queen at the re-opening of the Albert Memorial and providing music at HRH Prince Charles’ fiftieth birthday celebrations at Hampton Court Palace.

The Zephyr Ensemble’s repertoire ranges from classical music such as Mozart and Haydn through to lighter numbers such as Gershwin and arrangements of songs from popular shows. The Ensemble is always happy to make arrangements of particular requests wherever possible.
